TrustedReviews: Toshiba 19AV505D 19in LCD TV Review

So pervasive has the UK's quest for high definition become that even screens as small as 15in are feeling the need to pack HD resolutions - regardless of whether it's truly possible to perceive the 'HD difference' at such a puny screen size.

Toshiba's new 19AV505D is just such a 'small screen, big resolution' product, cramming 1,440 x 900 pixels into its widescreen 19in frame. The question is, will this resolution turn out to be more than just a gimmick?

The reams of pixels have, at least, found their way into what is by small TV standards a pretty attractive home. Far too many small TVs still look like reworked PC monitors, but this Toshiba's gloss-black finish, tastefully rounded corners and gently curved bezel is clearly designed specifically with a domestic environment in mind.
